Highlights

The patch that does not need glue or a heat gun

Cut a rounded patch, peel, press. It is dry and holding in minutes.

Clear TPU film

Transparent, so a patch on a boat or a tent panel does not shout across the room.

Self-adhesive

No glue to mix, no cure time. Clean the surface, peel the backing, press it down hard.

Stretches with the fabric

TPU flexes with an inflatable or a tent panel instead of lifting at the edges.

10 cm x 1.5 m roll

Enough for a dozen patches, cut to whatever shape the tear needs.

Product description

About this product

Inflatable Boats Camping Tents – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Dar es Salaam.

Most repair jobs on camping and water gear fail at the edge of the patch, because a stiff patch on a flexible surface peels the moment the fabric moves. TPU does not have that problem. It is the same family of material used to coat inflatable boat fabric and hydration bladders, so it stretches and recovers with whatever it is stuck to.

The roll is 10 cm wide and 1.5 m long at 0.3 mm thick, with a single-sided acrylic adhesive. It is clear, so it works on a tent fly, a groundsheet, a pool liner or a dinghy without looking like a repair.

Key Features

  • Thermoplastic polyurethane film, transparent
  • Single-sided acrylic adhesive, no glue required
  • 0.3 mm thick, flexible and abrasion resistant
  • 10 cm x 1.5 m roll
  • Waterproof once pressed down

How To Apply It

  • Clean the area with fresh water and let it dry completely. On a boat, wipe with alcohol if you have it.
  • Cut a patch that overlaps the damage by at least 2 cm on every side, and round the corners. Square corners lift.
  • Peel the backing, lay the patch from one edge to avoid trapping air, and press hard from the centre outwards.
  • Leave it a few hours before putting the item back under pressure or in water.

Who It Suits

Anyone with an inflatable boat, a kayak, a tent, an awning, a pool or pool liner, or rubber and leather gear that has taken a nick. It belongs in the same bag as the tent pole repair tubes.

What Is Included

  • 1 x roll of TPU repair tape, 10 cm x 1.5 m

Questions

Good to know

Will it hold on an inflatable boat?

Yes, that is its main job, provided the surface is clean and completely dry and the patch overlaps the damage generously with rounded corners. Let it sit for a few hours before you reinflate to full pressure.

Can I use it on a wet surface?

No. Any moisture under the patch will stop the adhesive keying, and the patch will lift within days. Dry and, if possible, wipe with alcohol first.

How big a tear will it fix?

Up to a few centimetres, reliably. A long split or a tear through a seam needs a stitched or welded repair, and a patch over it will only buy you time.

Does it work on a tent fly?

Yes, on the coated inner face for a pinhole or a small tear. On a mesh panel there is nothing for it to stick to.

How does it cope with Dar heat and sun?

Fine in use. Store the roll out of direct sun and away from a hot car dashboard, because heat over time softens the adhesive on the roll.

Can I remove a patch later?

With patience and gentle heat, yes, but it will leave adhesive residue. Place the first patch carefully rather than planning to move it.

How many patches will one roll give me?

Cut into typical 6 to 8 cm ovals, a 10 cm x 1.5 m roll gives well over a dozen.

Will it stick to a PVC pool liner?

Yes. Clean it, dry it completely, and press it down firmly from the centre out.
